I clipped the following from the New York Times, who will be the first 
to suffer with this camera?

Next month, JVC will release the GR-HD1, the first high-definition 
consumer camcorder. It makes a considerable dent in the HD universe: 
until now, capturing HDTV video has required a special professional TV 
camera that can be yours for the low, low price of $100,000.

Put another way, HDTV has been something you watch, not something you 
create.

But not anymore. The JVC model comes with a two-hour battery, a 
cleaning cassette, an AC adapter-charger, a remote control and TV 
connection cables (including the three-headed component video cable 
required by HDTV sets) - all for a reasonable $3,500.
